All the lolz

I heard BP may have issues getting there on time due to the mess in Texas that's routing a bunch of people to DFW.

The most important part of this exercise is that I feel like we now have 10 legitimate prospects who have a good shot at becoming solid major leaguers, with a whole bunch just outside the top 10 who could become equally as good as those in the top 10.

I left him off on purpose... I was pretty pumped to be honest, but his name is just taboo when it comes to the Angels so I'd rather just forget about it.

I agree. There are a bunch of outfield options. Hunter, Lund, Gibbons, Sandoval, Montgomery, Flores... there's more I'm missing. On the SP side, you got Pena, Morales, Gatto, Castillo, Jewel, Lamb and Jose Suarez.

Added the poll option. Another good one that I forgot to include initially.

I added the poll option for you to vote.

Real quick. who is your top-5 to 10 Angels prospects right now off the top of your head. Here's mine... 1. Jo Adell 2. Jahmai Jones 3. Jaime Barria 4. Brandon Marsh 5. Matt Thaiss 6. Griffin Canning 7. Michael Hermosillo 8. Leo Rivas 9. Taylor Ward 10. Elvin Rodriguez Tons to consider for the spot at #10, but I went with the youngest most live arm who has also seen results. Thoughts?

I forgot about Mo Vaughn. I'll add him in as a choice. I too was very excited after that news broke.

@Adam that was a fun night when the news broke when I was preparing my Thanksgiving meal for guests the next day. The Pujols/Wilson signing day was just nuts. It about broke our old website, but it was so much fun. Christmas came early that year. To me it's Vlad, because it was unexpected and he was one of the best players in the game, STILL in his prime. I was sitting in the jacuzzi having a glass of wine when my buddy @Mrinsider called me to tell me the news.

It's there! I left Hawkins out though.

Some good choices to choose from, Angels fans.

Vote!

FIFY

Please tell me this isn't real...

Same. Let's go grab a beer after work and talk this shit out.

He's too busy working on that fashion game of his than getting back into baseball shape. I'm guessing that twinge in his side after his last rehab game was due to the man purse he was swinging when walking from his car to the locker room.

I hope Phillips makes it in time. I guess everyone is flying into DFW because of Hurricane Harvey.

We would have had to give up Barria, Jones and probably a guy like Marsh to equal that of the Stros offer. All good. We've handled Verlander in the past.

I'd like him to get some starts in RF to give Calhoun a breather here and there.

They've been struggling in every part of the game for the past month now.

I really hope Sosh bats him 3rd.
